yes. when you throw the wheel like a ninja during transition (flip) and you rack your shit and it gets all numb lol "they call it the stranger" ;p |
I have been working on my car these past couple of days rigorously - it is starting to pay off :)

Safety first :) I went to to U Drift last night to test and tune the car, I am happy with the results and yet there are still more things to do. http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._2075968_n.jpg I will be trying my best @ round 3 - lets have some fun |
i dont want to see anymore of that spinning out shit this weekend.
Aaron needs to be killing it. Let's go battle some damn V8 240's. |
I had like 2 spin outs - and one was a sick 360 :P
|
So round 3 of pro am's have come and gone.
I crashed pretty hard - I blacked out and went to hospital. I turned out ok, but I don't remember anything yet. I laid down a nice conservative 1st run - and it landed me in first. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4r4Oyrqnvw But after that, I remember talking in the pits, and then I don't remember anyting afterwards. I did this though http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...6_390501_n.jpg So off to round 4 I go, I have another car and I will be swapping parts over. :nod: everything is a learning experience :) Oh - I also had the fastest entry speed - 82 mph |
It was a pretty crazy crash.
I was out in the pits so I lost sight of you past the first turn. You were hauling ass through it. Then we heard the thud. I guess one of my friends in the stands has video of it. Waiting on them to post it. |
that would be awesome, I have not even seen it yet - I seriously do not remember what I did.
A lot of my friends were saying it had to be some mechanical failure because "I wouldn't do that" but I think they were just being nice. |

I put my other shell together these past couple of days and me and buckey got it rolling.
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._2670839_n.jpg Now its off to th shop to get another roll cage done, but this time I am cutting out the doors and having my seat mounted lower - no more head crashes for me http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot..._6042390_n.jpg :nod::nod: |

|

|
damn dude glad your ok....crashing means your just learning how to drift, it happens.
|
Thanks man - I don't fully remember what happened, but I must have pushed to hard
|
This is what happens when you do work and don't take any pictures of it.
Everything gets transferred over and a new car looks clean. http://distilleryimage5.instagram.co...382044a1_7.jpg |
